He lies face-up, legs slightly bent, one arm outstretched with an upturned open hand as if grasping at nothing. His sculpted studded leather armour is detailed with rivet work and cross-laced stitching across the torso and arms. A brimmed iron helmet rests beside his turned head, separated from his body as though knocked free in the struggle. Sturdy, heavily-soled boots complete the look of a working soldier of the watch — someone who walked these streets every night, until tonight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the second variation in Novaminis' Dead Watchman series. Where variant 01 offers a different posture or orientation, this sculpt places the guardsman squarely on his back, arms slightly spread, lending itself particularly well to dramatic crime-scene and aftermath storytelling. The detail across the armour — each rivet, each stitched seam — gives painters a wealth of surface texture to work with, and the flat pose makes him remarkably easy to base and display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a prone terrain-adjacent piece, he works equally well as scatter — a body on the floor of a corridor — or as a deliberate narrative focal point in a murder-mystery or heist scenario. Paint him in muted greys and browns for a grim city guard, or push the contrast on the leather armour for a display diorama centrepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA great addition for adventurers who:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun urban campaigns with city watches, guilds, or criminal underworlds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeed corpse markers or fallen NPC props for encounter storytelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant atmospheric scatter to dress dungeon corridors, tavern floors, or alleyways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnjoy painting detailed armour textures and character-rich figures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre building a Ravenloft or gothic city setting with real narrative weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEncounter Hook\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe party turns into the alley behind the Merchant's Quarter and finds a city watchman face-up in a puddle — his helmet beside him, one hand outstretched, his purse untouched. No wounds are visible. The Investigation check reveals faint burns on his fingertips and a smell of sulphur. Someone, or something, wanted him out of the way tonight — and the party has three hours before the morning patrol finds the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDead Watchman 02 is a 32mm scale prone human figure, supplied unpainted and unassembled where applicable. The flat recumbent pose makes him straightforward to base on a standard rectangular or oval base.
